Adaptation of the Ohlson Model (1995) for the study of the valorative relevance of intangible assets and intellectual capital

The decrease in the relevance of accounting information for the valuation of companies in the capital markets reveals the limitations of current accounting systems and reveals the existence of other sources of information that are taken into account by investors, being these sources directly linked to intangibles and, in particular, to intellectual capital. The objective of this paper is to present a series of models, built on the basis of Ohlson's model (1995), whose purpose is to evaluate the value relevance of intangible assets and intellectual capital. Methodologically, a descriptive research based on the documentary review of the main theoretical and empirical antecedents has been carried out. Its results contribute to the line of research in value relevance from a methodological point of view, particularly in relation to models that serve to analyze the influence of intangibles in the process of valuation of shares in the market.
